I believe all investigations have concluded or are very close (today). Rewards should go out this week! The process of granting them is a manual one but that shouldn't create too much more of a delay. Thank you again to everyone for your patience. Introducing the "off-season" again with S10 should alleviate these issues.

Appreciate the desire to help test! To abate any concerns, we will also be planning playtests for next weekend as well, likely Friday and Saturday again. I will post more details on timing next week.

Try now! Should be live.

Maybe make something that just copies live install and alters it to PTS with a small PTS patch?

Looking forward to seeing the new map!
Totally right on the short playtimes. I will make sure to be online on PTS tonight to monitor population. This way I can let people know if we have to call off the session if we don't have enough people.

Unfortunately due to the way that PTS works currently, small patches aren't possible for updates like this. We're always looking for ways to improve it though.

Hey folks,

Please use this thread to post your feedback on the new Vandin Huttball Warzone. Any and all feedback is welcome. A few things that are different about this Warzone that you should be aware of:
  • There are new traps!
  • You can fall off the sides of the map.
Let us know your thoughts.

Hey folks,

Like we did for previous PTS updates, we are going to be running some focused playtest sessions for the new Vandin Huttball Warzone. This will allow us to ensure that a higher volume of players are in the queue at one time. The playtests will occur:
  • Friday, 8/31 - 2PM :4PM PDT (9PM - 11PM GMT)
  • Saturday, 9/1 10AM: 12PM PDT (5PM - 7PM GMT)
Like always, we will be running around playing incognito alongside you! Hop in and don't forget to pass on your feedback on the new map, here.

In order to participate simply have a character of any level on any faction and queue up within the specific window. As a note, if you end up in an Arena match instead of Vandin, do your best not to leave the match. Instead try to complete it as quickly as possible and then requeue.

When was the cantina crawl achievement & Paxton Rall companion going to be released?

Curse that wily pirate! We will bring him to justice yet!

Paxton is still intended to go live as part of a future promotion; you'll see an official announcement when that happens.

Until then, trust nothing he says!

These unlocks are once again on the CM.

Conquest End Time Change

When 5.8 launched they moved the conquest start time to 2 PM eastern to help fix a bug.
Anyone could do those weekly quests before 2 PM eastern and they wouldn't count toward the new week's conquest.

The only difference NOW is that there is ONLY a 1 hour gap between old week conquest and new week conquest.

A) If you do the weekly on Tuesday before 1 PM NOW, and if you didn't do the weekly for old conquest yet, you can do it and get credit on the last day.
B) If you did the weekly before Tuesday during old conquest, and you do it again between weekly reset and new conquest...you don't get credit for it at all (you wasted it).
C) If you do the weekly AFTER new conquest starts, you get credit for it like normal.


B is the same today as it was a month ago. It's just a little more obvious now with the 1 hour downtime instead of the 24 hour downtime.
Hey folks,

Thank you for raising this. Highlighting Darevsool's post as it is a pretty good assessment of my understanding of what is occurring as well (which has been going on since we adjusted Conquest timing). Gonna move this thread to the bug report forum, the team is looking into it. Most likely the Conquest time changing will address the issue, but I will pass on more details as I have them.

We are in the finalizing process on them now. We completely understand the frustration in the delay, but we want to ensure we are giving them to the right people! We have one last set of players we are investigating and then the rewards will be issued. I am still hopeful for this week, but it may be next.

In the future we will likely bring back pre-season between seasons so that we have time for this review.

Thanks!
